Nottinghill Kitchen 162-168 Parnell Road, Parnell, Auckland 1052

"Located on Parnell Road, Parnell., so as you might expect a nice looking establishment.. It certainly was.. Nice comfy seats, leather bench seats, big comfy chairs by a gas fire... Very nice. The menu was small and simple, but the amazing thing was the prices were alot cheaper than expected (given where we were). Coffee​arrived, it wasn't the greatest textured milk and the waiter had slopped a good portion in to the saucer, but didn't say anything... So just average at best for the coffee. The meals arrived and were decent portions, waitress offered cracked pepper, nice. My friend had fish and chips but the fish was store brought battered, so nothing special. I had the mince, which was a bit bland and watery, like you get when you defrost something in a microwave and reheat, so disappointed with that a bit too. This place has alot to offer I feel, but with so much competition around it needs to up it's game on the details. Would recommend for a nice surrounding."

"Updated 12 May 2023 I have decided to update my initial review (changing from 2 stars to 3 stars). While I was disappointed with my lunch experience, I wanted to provide a fair assessment. The egg benedict dish did not meet my expectations (see photos. Overcooked and needed more hollandaisesauce), and the french toast was mediocre compared to other options I have tried before. However, I must commend the friendly service and attentive staff. The latte I had was hot and possibly the best in Parnell, speaking as a local and coffee lover. Their cakes were also quite good. After posting my initial review, Vicky, a representative from the restaurant, responded and reached out to me. I actually had a conversation with her on the phone, and I mentioned that I intended to revisit the restaurant to give the same menu another try rather than seeking a refund. However, upon further consideration, I decided against going back. I felt uncomfortable going there after informing them of my planned visit. I didn't want the staff to be overly conscious of my presence and potentially treat my dish differently. While Vicky's gesture was kind, I preferred not to disclose my intended time and date of visit and eat under their observation without paying. I may choose to visit again in the future and try the same menu while paying for it. If the egg benedict dish impresses me on that occasion, I will certainly acknowledge it. In light of the above, I would like to revise my initial review rating. I now rate the restaurant with 3 stars, as I feel my initial critique was overly harsh. It is possible that my specific dishes were not up to par on the day of my visit. Nonetheless, I can affirm that their coffee and other food offerings are better than those of any other cafes in Parnell."

"Great lunch option at Parnell. Chorizo egg and New York omelette were very tasty. So much so that you want to back again and have the same thing. Relaxing ambience and friendlly staff just make your dining experience erso much better,"

"This place is perfect for Brunch in the heart of Parnell shops. The ambience and decor reminds you of London cute cafes. We sat at the back side. The staff are very welcoming and service is great. We came in looking fod Pancakes but no cafes nearby had them. We walked in randomly to this place om Easter Sunday, We ordered French toast and coffee and asked if they can do Pancakes. The staff were so sweet they made Pancakes for us even though it was not on the menu. The portions were great. Coffee was just perfect. Thank you Notting Hill Kitchen team for your lovely hospitality."

"Had breakfast here this morning. The New Yorker omelette was very good my friend had a vegetarian version of the big breakfast. Which was good except for the roti being bit dry. Good coffee and the a pot of tea. Nice and clean and good service with pleasant staff. A nice spot for breakfast or brunch."
